Bachtobelstrasse

Bachtobelstrasse goes from Uetlibergstrasse to Kolbenhofstrasse. It is named after the ravine (Tobel) next to the Kolbenhofbach (stream leading to the Sihl river).

A grey pole in front of a residential building and trees, with a dirty "Bachtobelstrasse" blue sign attached to it

A small water stream falling on light brown steps, with vegetation-covered walls on each side

The Kolbenhofbach in question

A road going downhill, with cars parked on each side under trees without leaves, and a hill with buildings visible in the hazy background

A one-way street with cars on each side, low residential buildings on the left side, trees on both sides, and a hazy, woody hill in the background

A red/orange tartan basketball court with a pedestrian path on its right side; a few buildings including a wooden prefab school building in the background

The 3-story building in the back is a school building (probably an extension of an existing school); there are a lot of these prefab buildings around the city (I just learnt they're called Züri-Modular)

A small water stream in a concrete canal, with a camera attached to a metallic pole pointing at it

The city is checking that nobody's stealing the stream. (More probably it measures the amount of water, though.)

A street with residential buildings, trees and cars on both sides, and a hazy hill in the background
